Feature request: presets for custom fields

The entryproperties plugin offers the option to add custom fields for entries. Sometimes, it would be useful to be able to add “presets” to those fields.
For example, I use custom fields in the S9y InfoCamp blog to add urls to and sizes of the mp3 and ogg files to entries. The actual values for the url fields are very much alike, only the number of the episode changes.
Suggested syntax: key:value, i.e. “Customfield1:Presetvalue1,Customfield2:Presetvalue2” etc. Or just use “Customfield1,Customfield2” to not use presets.

Hi!
Good idea. Shouldn't be too hard to implement.

Should be possible to “mix” key:value pairs as well, i.e. “Customfield1,Customfield2:Presetvalue2”.

Hi!
Just committed to the 1.7 branch. Please test if this works for you, then I'll commit to 2.0 tree as well.
New variable also allows to escape ":" and "," if you need to use it for the default value; thought that might be important.
Regards,
Garvin

Works just fine for me, including the escape mechanism.

Hmmmm. In 1.7-alpha1, I get this when publishing an entry:
Code: Select all
== TESTING ERROR MODE ==
Array
(
[0] => 2
[1] => explode() expects parameter 2 to be string, array given
[2] => /var/www/virtual/xxx/sub.domain.tld/plugins/serendipity_event_entryproperties/serendipity_event_entryproperties.php
[3] => 179
[4] => Array
Full error log:

Might be due a strange setup in my dev blog, though.

Probably not, I haven't updated this dev blog in a while since I've been working on 2.0. My bad. I will report back if updating does not fix it.

EDIT: JFTR, it works fine in latest 1.7.
